Grand Hotel De Djokja

Grand Hotel De Djokja

10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Da Djokja! I appreciated the warm welcome from the hotel staff, especially those in the lobby, who made me feel comfortable and welcome. The gym was another highlight of my stay! It has a great view of the pool from the gym. I find it really cute of how small the gym is and how much equipment it can fit in there. It is also well maintained. I also really liked how spacious my suite was, along with the comfortable bed and large bathroom. I also enjoyed the breakfast selections. One of the most memorable experiences was the complimentary photo session offered by the hotel, where we had the opportunity to dress in traditional Indonesian clothing. It was such a lovely and unique experience! We especially appreciated how patient and friendly our photographer was throughout the session. She took the time to guide us on how to pose and made sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Another nice perk was the 10% discount on food, along with the convenience of having our meals delivered directly to our room. It was a thoughtful touch that made our stay even more relaxing and enjoyable. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and truly enjoyed the hotel’s hospitality and thoughtful extras! I genuinely felt that booking a suite was worth every penny, and I didn’t regret spending the extra money for the additional comfort"

"Beautiful and luxurious hotel with an A+ staff. Room is cleaned every day unless I ask to skip (with a button near the door) but they will come by later for a rescheduling. This way they can restock the free complimentary water and food/fruits. Pool is very nice, breakfast buffet is from 6am to 10am and I do recommend getting it as part of your room - wide selection and most of its pretty good. There is a national anthem at 10am that does play in public areas of the hotel. Staff is helpful and professional with the front desk and those at most front facing positions having strong English speaking skills too. Would go back if I was in Yogya"

"Where do I begin? My stay at this hotel was magnificent. The pictures do not do this hotel justice, our expectations were beyond exceeded. I’ll begin with the hotel grounds, a true nature paradise. The staff works tirelessly to keep the grounds immaculately clean. The views of the temples and surrounding mountains are beautiful. There is a nice area for children and such cute animals that are well taken care of. Our modern grand spa villa was stunning! We swam in our warm pool, enjoyed the views, and wish we could stay longer. Cleanliness was 10/10. House-keeping and butler service was impressive. The service everywhere was wonderful. The staff at the morning breakfast and afternoon tea were wonderful. All smiles and greetings even from the chefs! They will go out of their way to ensure you have everything you need. The restaurants were delicious. The staff at the front desk was professional and very helpful at addressing our needs 24 hours a day. Thank you!! The afternoon tea was a delight. The music was very soothing, the treats and tea was delicious. The spa was phenomenal. Best massages my husband and I have ever had. Book massages here, you will not regret it! The gym is well-equipped and very clean. A special shout out to Sandy, Divian, the lady with braces working in the restaurant, and the female receptionist, thank you immensely for your service! This hotel has everything and more. Highly recommend. We will return but next time for a longer stay!!"
